Death toll rises to 8 in attack on football fans in Nigeria

A suicide bomber has killed eight people in an attack in central Nigeria on spectators watching a broadcast of the Champions League final, an eyewitness told dpa. Police spokesman Frank Mba earlier said Saturday's attack killed two people, as well as the suicide bomber, while two people who sustained injuries were taken to hospital. But witness Abdullateef Adio told dpa he saw "more than eight bodies after the stampede that followed the explosion" at a viewing centre. He said more than 50 people were injured. Adio said three buildings were set ablaze by the blast.
